About this listen

From two times number one Sunday Times bestselling author, James Smith, comes HOW TO BE CONFIDENT – the third instalment in James’ no-nonsense guides to gaining the tools to empower your decision-making and change your life.

Now, more than ever, we are so often lost within a cycle of negativity – from comparing ourselves to others and doom scrolling on social media, to a paralysis of choice and chasing external gratification that does nothing to nurture authentic happiness. We need confidence to master our true ambitions, realise our genuine strengths, and achieve the life we need, but might not know we want. Luckily, with his candid, no-nonsense advice, experience, and passion, James is here to lead the way.

Great read and listen. concepts used in each chapter create small but manageable actions that will resonate with any open listeners in understanding where they sit in their own values and beliefs and overall level of confidence.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book which had lots of nuggets and James delivers with a good tone.
The use of a presentation as 80% to support the presenter when public speaking resonated as I thought it just me who needed the prompts.
Interesting that James practices all presentations to the nth degree.
A thoroughly enjoyable and thought provoking listen. Also great business by giving one of his books as part of Prime reading, as that was the first time I heard of James but as a result bought both the other books!

Such a good listen
